Just a little bit from "make test" (from today's CVS, 2003-10-31):

I don't know if this is relevant... The problem remains with this
compiled PHP.

I can basically rip, with a few alterations, the "expected/actual"
results from bug 25876:

Expected result:
----------------
not to see this message in logs, see the page expected

Actual result:
--------------

[client 62.169.69.5] PHP Fatal error:  session_start(): Failed to
initialize storage module. in
/var/www/htdocs/mail/functions/global.php
on line 295, referer: https://www.dehumanizer.com/mail/src/webmail.php

and we get just a blank page instead of seeing of what actually
expected. Refreshing, or going back then clicking again, usually
works.

I can copy my php.ini and the results of "make test" and phpinfo() and
post them here, but it may be too big. Is it OK?

By the way, if I use Apache 1.3.28 instead, configuring the same
version of PHP with exactly the same options (except replacing
--with-apxs2 with --with-apxs), the problem disappears.

Description:
------------
I believe this bug had already been reported by someone else (#25876),
but it was marked as "bogus".

I'm using FreeBSD 4.9 (and 4.8-STABLE before), Apache 2.0.48 from ports
(and 2.0.47 before), and tried several PHP versions from 4.3.2 to
4CVS-20031030 (today's). All of them exhibit this problem, with
SquirrelMail 1.4.2. 

I don't think it's a SquirrelMail problem, however, as the line in
question is a simple

        session_start();

The problem is intermitent - when navigating through the webmail, from
time to time, when I click on a link, a blank page appears *very
quickly*, just in the frame which was supposed to be changed. In the
logs, I get this error:

[client 62.169.69.5] PHP Fatal error:  session_start(): Failed to
initialize storage module. in /var/www/htdocs/mail/functions/global.php
on line 295, referer: https://www.dehumanizer.com/mail/src/webmail.php

If I reload the page, or go back from the blank page and click on the
same link again, it usually works then. The error rate is hard to
calculate, but it should be less than 1 in 10 times.

I've tried changing the sessions handler between files and mm, but it
doesn't solve the problem. Neither does activating register_globals,
which SquirrelMail doesn't need, anyway.

PHP configure options:

./configure  --disable-cgi --with-apxs2=/usr/local/sbin/apxs
--with-openssl --with-zlib --with-gdbm --with-imap --with-iconv
--enable-ftp --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-curl --disable-debug
--enable-exif --enable-sockets --disable-ipv6 --with-gd --with-jpeg-dir
--with-png-dir --enable-dio --with-gettext=/usr/local --with-bz2
--enable-mbstring --enable-mbregex --enable-zend-multibyte
--with-mysql-sock=/tmp/mysql.sock --with-mm=/usr/local
